Celebrate the Author: May Reviews

May, the fifth month of our challenge, is here. I still can't believe it. This month especially has caught me by surprise. I still haven't read a book for this month's author. Which may not seem like such a big deal. But to me, it's just proof that I don't have it quite together yet. Anyway, leave a comment with a link to your review--if you have a blog. If you don't have a blog, you can just mention what you read this month to celebrate.

To read the original post about the challenge, click here. You can read January's round up here. If you participated but your link isn't included, please let me know by commenting on that post. I'll be sure to add you in. You can read February's round up here. Again, let me know if I've missed your post. And here is the post for March. Again, let me know if I've missed you. Same goes with April.
